In What World Does This Make Sense?

That form is there since the tariffs. I ordered an aluminum knob for the drive mode selector from the states a couple of weeks ago and had to fill in the exact same form. I had to pay 35 euro import tariffs for that. That knob was just 20 grams..

I have to call the vendor tomorrow, I tried calling Friday and they only work 4 days a week. Must be nice lol.

I did not but that was pre-tariff days. I thought the seller completed these forms not the buyer.

Nope: tariffs and other import related matters are always handled by the importer (as they are the ones bringing the item into the country and are bound by local laws).

Usually there's a middle man (local subsidiary or reseller) who takes care of this on your behalf but if you're buying directly from a foreign company then you are the importer.

Are we winning yet?

Zunsport grills are available on Amazon, which I'm guessing removes us as the importer, although I haven't tried that yet.

Nope, Amazon US has very lax requirements to list products: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/G201468460

Given that Zunsport's website has a UK address and their product listing proclaim that they're made in the UK, I'm guessing they're shipping directly from the UK, which makes you the importer.

It was a pretty viable model before the "de minimus" rule was removed and tariffs slapped on a bunch of things.

Yes, you are winning and we are also winning with our marvellous Brexit masterstroke.

Hi guys. I did it

The installation wasn’t as easy as the video suggested but definately not hard either. This is the video:


I tried this way but couldn’t get the clips clicking in. For me it worked well this way:

- Push the bottom side deeper in so the top middle clip (the big one) clicks.
- manouvre the bottom back out
- align the outside but don’t fix it yet
- push the centre side in till it clicks. This one is quite hard (at least for me with small hands that aren’t strong)
- push the outer one in place, it didn’t click by itself without using the screwdriver
- push all the clips firmly in place
- test by pulling with your screwdriver where the clips are

On these foto’s you can see the clips in place. A flashlight is needed to see anything in there to make sure they are in place

Thank you! Your guide helped me a lot!

Whenever mine gets cracked I'll just turn off the feature. Getting pretty tired of these built-in costly expenses.

Owners like you will be mentioned in Porsche's Chapter 11 filings. Engineers will then proceed to make sure the car will not shift to DRIVE in such situation, even if you choose to disable the feature. Marketing will then push for a "Pay to Drive" feature, to enable you to drive with broken Night Vision, billed per mile driven.

And yet I'm on my 9th Porsche and 3rd Taycan...I think I'm doing my part to keep them afloat.
